This problems seems to be fixed, but one problem still remains. The kde code
for setting ioctl sound device checks the return value against zero. So it
assumes positiv values as an error.

I have looked in a linux man pages for ioctl and there is described that
only zero or -1 are defined as return values. Is the return value of 1 a
feature or is it a bug ?
